The course involves knowledge, skills, projects and the Scots Language Award. Each lesson you will do a vocabulary exercise, either in class or for homework and another activity. You will list the words, find out the meaning, then do an activity with the words each week. Mostly the vocabulary can be accessed in 'DORIC FOR BEGINNERS' book, or if you don't have the book, use online dictionaries demonstrated in the HOME section.

NEXT, get into groups assigned by your teacher and on a sheet of paper write as many Scots words as you can think of. If you are stuck, think of people you know who speak Scots, maybe in your family, yer grunny, or people you hear in the street or in the corridors at school.

When finished SHARE the words with the rest of the class.
